We support this measure, which was proposed in two previous bills. It was withdrawn for reasons of parliamentary efficiency. This is a section of the Criminal Code that has been declared unconstitutional by several courts of appeal in Canada including the Court of Appeal of Quebec in Roy v. R. The discriminatory nature of the section is clearly the issue. We certainly support the repeal of section 159 of the Criminal Code.
